Scorpio monthly horoscope
October 2026
In October, Scorpio, the Sun lights your twelfth house until 23 October; after that it moves to your first, how you come across and what you want for yourself.
Sun sextile Jupiter, across your twelfth and tenth houses
The Sun and Jupiter give each other a hand this month, joining your twelfth house (rest, solitude and what runs under the surface) to your tenth (your work in the world and what you are known for). Make a small move towards the way people outside your circle see you; it meets little resistance now.
November 2026
Next month’s reading. Still in October? Read Scorpio in October 2026.
Scorpio, November begins with the Sun in your first house and ends with it in your second: how you come across and what you want for yourself, then what you value and what you own.
Mars conjunction Jupiter, in your tenth house
Mars and Jupiter meet in your tenth house this month: your work in the world and what you are known for. Two kinds of energy in one room, and the next step in what you are building gets both.
